Truckee Chamber of Commerce Announces 2025 Truckee Core Values Fund Recipients

The Truckee Chamber of Commerce is pleased to announce the 2025 Core Values Fund Grant Recipients. This community event fund, established in collaboration with the Town of Truckee and administered by the Tahoe Truckee Community Foundation, is designed to support local nonprofits in the region or events that partner with nonprofit organizations by providing essential marketing resources. Events must occur within Truckee's Town limits and align with at least one of the five Truckee Core Values: Healthy Lifestyle, Family-Friendly, Natural Beauty, Community-Minded, and Arts, Culture, and History.

“We are thrilled to offer the Core Values Funding to support our incredible nonprofit partners,” said Jessica Penman, President & CEO of the Truckee Chamber. “This program, in collaboration with the Town of Truckee, is a meaningful way to give back and strengthen the events that truly showcase what makes Truckee such a special community.”
